Athens, Greece


Following our sail, the 4 of us spent a couple of days in Athens, exploring the city and visiting the Acropolis and Pantheon. The city itself is busy and full of vendors (black market). You can buy anything here (and I mean everything!). The market shown in this photo was something to see and smell! A huge covered area (no refrigeration) with hanging meat of all kinds and fish. We were here when a 6.5 earthquake rattled a nearby city...










The Acropolis and Pantheon were being refurbished but quite a site, on a hilltop overlooking the city
